On October 20, My Vape Order (MVO) petitioned a federal court of appeals for “an emergency motion for a stay pending a review and for expedited consideration” on the company’s vapor products that have been removed from the market.
In early September, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had issued a marketing denial order for MVO’s products.
Like all other vape companies in the United States, MVO had until September 2020 to file premarket tobacco product applications (PMTAs) to be able to keep selling its vapes and e-liquids; the FDA, in turn, had until September 2021 to review the PMTAs.
The FDA missed its deadline to make decisions on the biggest vape companies’ products; it has subsequently approved just one. The agency has meanwhile issued marketing denial orders (MDOs) to numerous smaller players—and many of them are now pushing back against a process that has caused widespread anger.
